listener-thread: err = -25572

Sometimes on Win2000, when I stop the IDS, it will not restart with a reboot. The message in the log says: 13:48:06 IBM Informix Dynamic Server Version 9.40.TC2 13:48:06 listener-thread: err = -25572: oserr = 48: errstr = : Networkdriver cannot bind a name to the port. System error = 48. 13:48:06 sql_listener: ASF_LISTEN failed 13:48:06 Attempting to bring listener thread down. 13:48:06 Server stopped. Is there a way to bring the IDS back up without a reboot? sending to informix-list

Normally this is caused by the engine crashing and informix failing to tidy up. You could try stopping and starting the network on the card, that might sort it. When it fails to start, run netstat -a, you should not see a FIN_WAIT2 on the informix port, if you are then the network bind as not been made correctly - this is a coding problem, either informix (not very likely due to problems with this in the past) or windows (likely 'cos it's crap) Cheers Paul Bill Hamilton wrote: > > Sometimes on Win2000, when I stop the IDS, it will not restart with a > reboot. > The message in the log says: > > 13:48:06 IBM Informix Dynamic Server Version 9.40.TC2 > 13:48:06 listener-thread: err = -25572: oserr = 48: errstr = : Network> driver cannot bind a name to the port. > System error = 48. > 13:48:06 sql_listener: ASF_LISTEN failed > > 13:48:06 Attempting to bring listener thread down. > 13:48:06 Server stopped.> > Is there a way to bring the IDS back up without a reboot? > > sending to informix-list -- Paul Watson # Oninit Ltd # Growing old is mandatory Tel: +44 1436 672201 # Growing up is optional Fax: +44 1436 678693 # Mob: +44 7818 003457 # www.oninit.com #
